The tcltkgrass GUI has its own resource configuration file ~/.tcltkgrass

Does "xterm" work otherwise?  Seems the problem is with xterm not liking
the locale setting.

Yes, but it looks like it's with the xterm and your locale setting.
Looks like using "xterm" is pretty hard-wired into tcltkgrass.  It
should probably be using $TERM first.
